Global Organization
The UK government is committed to continuing to invest in UK battery manufacturing. This strategy builds on our impressive track record of targeted government support, leading to a pipeline of investments through the battery ecosystem:
The government’s vision is for the UK to continue to grow a thriving battery innovation ecosystem and become a world leader in sustainable design, manufacture, and use. The strategy was developed with the UK battery strategy taskforce, drawing on the call for evidence and engagement with businesses and stakeholders.
The UK government remains resolute in its commitment to steer the battery sector towards sustainable growth, ensuring resilience and fostering an environment conducive to innovation, investment, and global leadership.
Invest an additional £38 million to enhance the UK Battery Industrialisation Centre development facilities, boosting its capability for research and development in new chemistries and future technologies. This builds on our know-how in lithium-ion solutions and enables the scale-up of emerging innovations.
The UK will be a world leader in sustainable design, manufacture, and use of batteries, underpinned by a thriving battery innovation ecosystem. The strategy was developed with the UK Battery Strategy Taskforce, drawing on the Call for Evidence [footnote 78] and engagement with businesses and stakeholders.
The government will properly consider the national security risks associated with investment into the UK battery supply chain, during their manufacture, development, and the ongoing operation of assets.
